Mia Yim vs Thea Trinidad

Mia and Thea appear to exchange compliments at the outset of this contest but the mood quickly devolves as Mia taunts Thea's height (or lack thereof) and takes offense at the latter implying that her abs aren't up to the Trinidad standard. These are two of the roster's quickest athletes and it shows in the lightning sequence of holds and reversals that ensues. Hammerlocks, Waistlocks, and armlocks turn into chokeholds and Camel Clutches. It's poor Thea who ends up suffering the brunt of that exchange, yielding control and ending up choked on the ropes, stepped on, bent in half in a Boston Crab, and more. She busts out the odd Clothesline here and punch there but keeps getting trapped in the vice-like clutches of Mia's muscular arms and/or legs. A sudden reversal occurs in the last third of the match, however, as she manages to punish Mia's abs in the corner and follow up with a Suplex and a veritable storm of blows. One lady puts an end to the proceedings with an effective finisher, winning an uncommonly well-fought match.
